914 gear ratios

The 914 gearbox ratios are as follows,

1st (11/34) 3.09:1
2nd (18/34) 1.89:1
3rd (23/29) 1.26:1
4th (27/25) .92:1
5th (31/22) .71:1

Final drive is (7/31) 4.429:1

All 914 gearboxes from the factory (4 cyl) had the same ratios whether they were tailshift or sideshift.

914/11 was the tailshift up to 1.10.72
914/12 was the sideshift box from then on.

Both can be converted but the later sideshift box needs a lot more parts to do it.
